hey whats up i got 84 mph on the 1/8 mile with 5 people including me in the car..is that good? i dont know too much about all that so just thought id post this see if i can get a response on it

 

is it auto ???

 

yeah

 

it's not bad for the auto with 5 people, try without4

 

how much of a diff. will it make?

 

84 mph in the 1/8th?? that's pretty fast... you sure that's right? i run high 9's and still get 72 in the 1/8 mi. congrats to ya if it is, just seems a little steep unless you've got some serious boost...

 

hell yea, that seems high as heck. you must be doing like 7's in the 1/8 mile if you're going 84mph. what mods do you have? turbo? 125 shot?

 

running the 1/8 with 5 people in the car and trapping 84

 

this was only what i was told..and it wasnt no official track it was a legal road with markings on it that people had made..we clocked it with a watch and thats about it...maybe something happened and i really didnt get it or maybe i did..oh well it was the first time i ever did it...i doubt anyone lives in my area or else i could get some proof....other than that youll just have to not believe me

 

125 shot? i dont know to much but i thought that would make a BIG difference...just curious about that

 

Thats your problem then.

Think about this, you have added at least another 600lbs to your car of 'dead weight', (saying that the average of all 5 people in the car weigh 120lbs) now your max is pushing the weight of a Cadillac, and you are claiming times that a great majority of Max's can't get with only one person.

Just take it to a track, with a timer; and you will get an accurate time.

 

that means 125 more crank HP which would be about another 90-100 whp

 

Do it at a real track. I don't know what you've got done to your car, but with an extra 4 people in the car, say 600lbs, you'd be lucky to be trapping 84mph in the 1/4.

Assuming you're a 5spd, you'd need to be pushing about 300hp and 350tq at the wheels to trap 84mph in the 1/8th with that much weight.
